The Jehovah's Witnesses are selling 107 Columbia Heights as they move their headquarters upstate to Warwick.

 

BROOKLYN HEIGHTS — TheJehovah’s Witnesses have put another big Brooklyn property on the market. 

The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society has listed its 154,000-square-foot building at 107 Columbia Heights on its real estate website. 

The 11-story, 161-unit property was was built in 1959 and renovated in 2007, according to the Watchtower.

The sizable building spans an entire block at Orange Street and includes a large auditorium with theater seating that has its own entrance on Willow Street, parallel to Columbia Heights.

The building also features private and rooftop terraces with prime views of the Brooklyn Bridge, Manhattan skyline and New York Harbor.

The property is located just next to the Brooklyn Heights Promenade entrance at Orange Street, and is blocks away from the 2/3 trains at Clark Street and the A/C trains at High Street.

Tucker Reed, president of the Downtown Brooklyn Partnership, has estimated the building will sell for about $154 million, according to the Commercial Observer, which first reported the story. 

The building, which is in a landmark district and classified as a dormitory, is likely to be converted into luxury condos, rentals or a hotel instead of being torn down, according to Brownstoner.

A Watchtower spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The property at 107 Columbia Heights is one of the last few buildings the group will sell off before moving its headquarters upstate to Warwick.

Construction of the new headquarters is expected to be completed by September, according to the Watchtower.

The property at 107 Columbia Heights was listed the same week that the Witnesses reached a deal on the sale of two massive properties nearby: the iconic Watchtower building at 25-30 Columbia Heights and the massive lot at 85 Jay Street.

      Is Light a Wave or a Particle?

      Clearly, they are already demanding your exile. Yes! It's unfortunate that Pudgy spoiled a great discussion about science. I hope the discussion can continue without any more nonsensical interruptions. Just a suggestion since they are on your heels. Wow! You speak! It seems you have a lot to say! Now they are going to treat like, who do you think you are, mister big stuff! Are those aliens now going to imply that anyone who speaks out against the five or six key contributors to this site will be treated as though it is George just because those in opposition speak the language they hate to hear, the TRUTH? They are seeking individuals who will embrace their nonconformist values and appreciate what they can offer in shaping public opinion contrary to the established agenda of God and Christ. Their goal is to enhance their writing abilities and avoid squandering time on frivolous pursuits, mainly arguing about the truth they don't care for. They see it all as a mere game, even when leading people astray. They believe they have every right to and will face no biblical repercussions, or so they believe. They just want to have fun just like that Cyndi Lauper song. Be prepared to be belittled and ridiculed, all the while they claim to be angels. Haha! By the way, please refrain from using the same language as George. They appear to believe that when others use the same words, it means they are the same person, and they emphasize this as if no one else is allowed to use similar grammar. It seems they think only they have the right to use the same or similar writing styles. Quite amusing, isn't it? See, what I just placed in bold, now I'm George, lol! Now, let's leave this nice science thread for people that want to know more about science. I believe George left it at "Zero Distance."

      Nice little thread you’ve got going here, SciTech. It would be a shame if something were to happen to it.

      It's truly disheartening when someone who is supposed to be a friend of the exclusive group resorts to using profanity in their comments, just like other members claiming to be witnesses. It's quite a ludicrous situation for the public to witness.  Yet, the "defense" of such a person, continues.

      No. However, I would appreciate if you do not reveal to all and sundry the secret meeting place of the closed club. (I do feel someone bad stomping on Sci’s little thread. But I see that has already happened.)
